Real Good Food

Derived from Nigel Slater's column in the "Observer", this book is full of recipes, technical tips, short-cuts, snippets of history, anecdotes and meditations on the aesthetics of eating. Most of all it is a testament to the pleasures of good food, from the grand poetry of a wild salmon in cream and dill sauce to the sheer sensuousness of hot buttered toast. Nigel Slater is the winner of the Glenfiddich Trophy, the Glenfiddich Cookery Writer of the Year and joint winner with Kevin Summers of the Glenfiddich Visual Award.
